The heat continues to build across central Alabama, and this will be a weekend to seek out a cool place like an air-conditioned mall or a swimming pool. Highs will be in the middle 90's and a few areas southwest6 of Birmingham may reach the upper 90's. Humidity levels have been rising, heat index values may approach 105 each afternoon. As for rain chances, radar returns have been mostly non-existent today, so I am not looking for anything more than a stray shower tonight. A weak system coming in from the west will set off a few scattered thunderstorms tomorrow and Sunday, with the best chance for rain east of I-65.
